We’re asking everyone to bring a canned good to help us prepare for the zombie apocolypse (and stock the shelves at the Franklin Community Center)!

In order to get caught up for the season 3 premiere we’ll be watching season 2 all day. We’re putting in a TV and getting cable just for this event!

The game room will be open and we’ll be playing zombie themed games including: Zombies, Walking Dead, Zombie Fluxx and Zombie Risk.

We will also be raffling off some awesome stuff including: the first Walking Dead compendium, the second Walking Dead compendium (due out in early October), the first season of the Walking Dead show, the second season of the Walking Dead show and a pair of tickets to the upcoming Rob Zombie & Marilyn Manson concert at the Glens Falls Civic center on Tuesday October 23rd. You will be able to purchase tickets for a week before the event and you don’t need to be present to win. Tickets will be $2.00 each and you can choose the item you’d like to win. All proceeds go to the Franklin Community Center.

The Zombie Walk will start in the store at 5:00 pm. All zombies must start at the store so we can explain the details of the walk. The walk also has to be done by 6:00 pm when the mall closes. Please help us spread the word! We need more zombies!!!

The Comic Depot will be holding a summer YuGiOh extravaganza! There will be 4 YuGiOh tournaments a week beginning July 1st and ending August 31st. Every win (during the Swiss rounds) in a tournament will count as a point in the Players Club. The points will accumulate through the season and we will be having a HUGE free tournament on Saturday September 1st. Every 4 spots will play for a box. (ie. 1-4, 5-8, 9-12, etc…)

For our 1st Comic Depot Players Club we are guaranteeing at least 3 boxes of prize for our Players Club tournament so at least the top 12 players at the Comic Depot will have a shot at a box!
If we get a good turnout at our summer events, the amount of players and the prizes for the Players Club will get even better!

Tournament Specifics:
Saturday September 1st
The top 12 (possibly more) players will be split into groups:
Group 1 – Players #1 to #4
Group 2 – Players #5 to #8
Group 3 – Players #9 to #12

Each group will play a single elimination, best of 3, bracketed playoff for a BOX OF YUGIOH CARDS.
Failure to show up for the box tournament makes you ineligible for prizes, unless you and everyone in your “Group” agree on a split prior to the Box Tournament. If there is a tie for last place, we will hold a playoff for last place before the box tournament. So if you are tied for last place show up an hour early!

Test your deck building skills with YuGiOh’s newest tournament format: THE PEGASUS CHALLENGE!
$5 Entry includes Turbo Pack, winner recieves an exclusive Pegasus Challenge single-card binder!

Thank you all for a fantastic Free Comic Book Day. We had an amazing line up of creators and a HUGE turnout of fans. Matthew Dow Smith created an awesome Avengers pinup which we made into creator “cards” to be collected. Here’s what the pinup looked like:

We had an amazing Cosplay group that were available for photo ops. With their help we raised over $200 for the Franklin Community Center!

We just came across a huge lot of 1980′s GI Joe’s and vehicles. There were 40-50 figures and 28 vehicle and accessories. The figures will be on display at the store this week, but the vehicles won’t because it’s too easy for them to lose the pieces that we just spent hours putting together! If you see something you’re interested in just let us know.
